Here is something I saw today: Florida does have open Enrolment not necessarily on one's birthday but from October 15 through December 7th for 2018.
State of Residence
Unfortunately, many people are going to be coerced into dropping their Plan F and purchasing a Plan G by agents who are either looking for easy business or just don’t understand all of the variables at play. If you live in a state that allows an open enrollment on your birthday, keeping a Plan F may make sense. This rule allows individuals to switch from one Plan F to another Plan F on their birthday or effective date (depending on state) without answering any underwriting questions. This helps individuals offset possible increases by changing carriers.
Called Boomer Benefits. CURRENTY it is a stipulation of the AARP agreement that plan switching to a lesser plan (G) would not be underwritten. That may change in 2020.
